1882, New York City. Harriet dreams of the day she can open up a shop selling refashioned gowns to independent working women like herself-- until she finds herself out of an income. Oliver Addleshaw is on the verge of his biggest business deal yet when he learns his potential partner prefers to deal with men who are settled down and wed. He enlists Harriet's help in making a good impression on his business partner. Just as she's ready to call off the fake relationship, a threat from her past forces both Oliver and Harriet to discover that love can come in the most surprising packages.
